Which Fuji camera would be best for me? I need a small camera, but one that's made good, has controls and a fast lens (f2.8 or faster). The XE-3 and XE-4 with the 28mm f2.8 pancake seem to be options. The X100T and V seem like good options, too.

But what I'm really getting at is the age old adage that the best camera is the one you have with you. These days, that's usually my phone. But the problem is always the same. The camera that's small enough that it's always in my pocket never seems to be the camera I really want when it comes time to shoot. Not enough physical controls, slow lens, bad viewfinder, slow AF... Meanwhile the DSLR that does everything I want it to do and need it to do stays home in the kit bag.

The Ricoh GR cameras probably fit my needs closely. But they don't have ovf's or evf's. Just a screen. The newest one has lost it's flash and has poor battery life.

I want a viewfinder I cant look through. I also would like a built in flash (although that's less important).

If you don't know what to buy...buy nothing!  This reasoning can be applied to all aspects of your life!  Go for it!
